SCA: security update for github.com/gotenberg/gotenberg/v8 (GHSA-vp73-vjw8-8f32)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 442469

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Gotenberg is a Docker-powered stateless API for PDF files. From 8.10.0 until 8.33.0, the newContext
function in pkg/modules/api/context.go starts one errgroup.Go goroutine for each multipart downloadFrom
entry and allows those goroutines to concurrently write to the shared ctx.files, ctx.diskToOriginal, and
ctx.filesByField maps and slices. Go maps and slices are not safe for concurrent mutation, so a crafted
multipart request containing many downloadFrom entries can trigger a data race and terminate the process
with a fatal concurrent map writes runtime error. The default configuration enables downloadFrom and
disables authentication, allowing an unauthenticated remote attacker to crash an exposed conversion
service and cause a denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 8.33.0. (CVE-2026-45742)

Solution

Update the github.com/gotenberg/gotenberg/v8 library and its related packages to version 8.33.0 or later.
